We publish objects

Issues

THE THING Quarterly is a periodical in the form of objects. It's like a magazine, except that each issue is conceived of by a different artist contributor and then published as a useful object. The form and content of each issue remains a secret until it is released. Issues are produced in limited quantities and packaged in signature, custom-made THING boxes. You can subscribe to the quarterly to be among the first to receive issues, or you can buy individual issues once they have been released to the public.

Projects

From time to time, THE THING releases special, artist-conceived projects that are not part of our quarterly publication. These projects range in price and production run: sometimes free, sometimes not; sometimes limited and signed, sometimes neither.

Subscribe

In subscribing to THE THING Quarterly, you will receive four artist-conceived issues over the course of one year. The form and content of each issue remains a secret until it is released, but you can count on it being a high quality, highly considered, useful object. Each issue is produced in a limited quantity and delivered to your door in a signature, custom-made THING box.
